a cabaret show like the moon long rouges you always need feathers rhinestones sequins and beautiful costumes. prim feathers a feminine and her own integral part of a cabaret costume so it wouldn't be as lively and feathers lend a woman grace and lightness. using special methods the plume craft of feathers the costumes and accessories all the work is done by hand and that time consuming it can take fifteen days to create a single construct. hughes it was very exacting work it depends on the feather no two are like each one is unique. you can't just stick them in a machine as you. said been practicing their traditional craft or mess on pay for the day since the firm's founding back in one thousand nine hundred twenty nine but they only divulge their trade secrets to their chosen successors.

all of the questions for the finale to the movie now i don't. get it and her team tailored the elaborate outfits so they fit each of the dancers like a glove. liner. also a dancer must feel comfortable in her costume because she has to exert yourself a lot on stage and if her costumes not comfortable it can get pretty tiring. so it needs to be really comfortable for the dancer and easy to wear. each costume is a work of art between three hundred and five hundred feathers they used to make each one. i guess i feel very privileged and lucky to be wearing a masterpiece and that to take care of the costumes something so valuable that you're wearing. it gives you a feeling inside that i guess helps with the expression when you're on stage as well. i know lights go down these costumes really get their chance to shine. she's

proud of its long working relationship with mess on paper yet. said. this collaboration is important because without the feathers and the jewelry the moulin rouge wouldn't be what it is people come to see something exceptional and when you see these tall dancers wearing extraordinary jewelry and extraordinary costumes there are more than a thousand costumes and at the same time these plumes of feathers are turning and twirling it's very sensual. they're turned her team are always happy to see that costumes being worn on stage. it's gratifying because even if you know the show and see it from time to time you still think wow it's magnificent. audiences also enjoy that colorful extravaganza with its flamboyant costumes.

phenomenal show lots of feathers and mayors make you sneeze a little bit so just tremendously amusing because doing so why does it take the choreography was so i have never seen anything in my life like the costumes are incredible i can't even begin to think about how much time and effort went into there was just an amazing thing as is every single cost. individually beautiful really beautiful beautiful they are all part of the razzle dazzle of them. and now we had to the noir nuts and identity in berlin this year it is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary but the celebration had to take place on the construction side but in slumdog of post-war modernism has been under renovation for years even if there are no exhibitions at the moment one person who regularly comes by architect did low home he was also around in nine hundred sixty eight when the

museum was first opened and that time he supervised the construction on behalf of his famous grandfather the architect miss funder of oh we met up with him to find out more. so my madame and ladies and gentlemen i'm really happy to be back in berlin. as you will have heard i regularly cross the atlantic to visit my old hometown mr. turkalo who has flown in from chicago to celebrate the restoration of berlin's noir nuts in our gallery which was designed by his grandfather ludwig niece found a roller below hand inherited ventura's copyright to this iconic building the architect regularly advises the team overseeing the renovation this is to be seen this is a bit like seeing the child you helped bring into the world fifty years ago once again fifty years later either through a leave. law hand scales the steps of a nearby church tower though he's more than familiar with the building he's never

seen it from this perspective it gives him an overview of the work in progress and that's all of this inside all this so well it's like my old home. we built architectural models of the entire site in the chicago office. richard it looks exactly like it doesn't reality. longhand relocated from germany to chicago in the one nine hundred sixty s. to work for his grandfather's architectural firm one of his first jobs was overseeing the construction of berlin snow and that's in our gallery the commission meant a lot to his grandfather who left germany and emigrated to the us in the late one nine hundred thirty s. . he spent exactly thirty years living out and exactly thirty in chicago. in berlin he lived just over there across the road first rate on the left of this is his neighborhood. the noir knutsen are galleries construction was

a feat of engineering its one thousand two hundred ton flat steel roof was welded together on sides and then slowly lifted up. here. he was excited to witness the roof being gradually lifted up words and couldn't wait until it was high enough to walk around underneath it. and he went around checking if everything looked alright from below the roof was still in motion nobody was actually allowed underneath the bottom. i mean no helmet would have saved you had those thousands of tons of steel come crashing down for it but if i made sure to stand underneath an opening in the roof in case it did for my grandfather wasn't bothered. so what did he learn from his grandfather that architecture is a serious business and that ideally you want to build something that will last for

centuries long hands own style is certainly influenced by me spent a rower. only one thing by the hand at the time. off to be smoked constantly from morning till night. the room is always full of smoke that bothered me at first. and even ask me would you like to have a cigar no now. now days longhand does occasionally treat himself to a cigar yet another thing he's inherited from his famous grandfather. but next report might make some of us feel a little busiest part of this week's sport is serious extraordinary a flat tax we're taking a closer look at slacklining which is a similar lot for tiger walking but a lot more thrilling especially of n. korea does it the german has one of the world's best lachlan as he's already broken several world records he travels all over the word and slag lines in the last

decade setting certainly nothing for the faint hearted. total freedom at one with nature that's how fraidy kuna prevents his breath taking and this is over the world. dancing between deserts and canyons rivers and streams all his senses are focused on. the spindle procedure called simply amount of concentration you muster is unbelievable and at the same prime your so called you just feel totally awake and alive everything feels a bit more intense. france and this intensive on cd is arguably one of the world's best linus. here in his hometown of colon hi my name munich he practices yoga to help block out disturbances concentrating on regular breathing and body tension. breathing plays a huge role in balance based sports where you have to concentrate and constantly

tense and relax your body especially when you walk on long high line and have to balance for an hour or two you have to really meditate your way into it. the deeper the canyon the stronger the butterflies in his stomach since fredy discover it's not lining eight years ago he has practiced almost every day he prefers to do it in a tandem hornick among goal it is also addicted to the sport in the great outdoors like hannity and some clam gorge south of munich need or is afraid that taking excessive risks they trust their equipment and each other their thing is communication you have to agree on things ahead of time how you're going to secure the anchors who setting up a lot who's responsible for water and you have to build trust in each other the preparations in the middle of the forest are elaborate what's the best place to do that it's what a stable anchoring points for the hooks and rope the slack line is two and a half centimeters wide and places enormous strain on the trees this is this is to

protect the reason bark somewhere sits. i want the bar to remain as it is in general and slacklining you want to leave us any traces behind as possible so when exploring the lesson today the line stretches forty metres from one end to the other it was about as perfect a shot. it all seems very hazardous and daring to if you are but fifty deep it's no big deal almost routine heights and depths no longer terrify him. everyone has a primal fear of flies to sleep but the more you climb on to the high line it's just the more your fear the windles now it feels like floating a metre above the meadow like it is when i practice in the park pocket of use a stream with it but it always requires the concentration. the wind every step the slightest movement of his torso far enough to make it in line vibrating.

beauty is a monster of the balancing game. this is. the sport originated in the united states. and his american girlfriend cantina cisco came to that line in three mountaineering. they met an international meeting of this not nine ing scene in front of you know cuts mina is impressed with freebies talent and skills. i think when he is walking alongside watching it constantly is bumping into me or cutting me off there is something that when his legs solo on a high line it. perfection like there's really no mistakes that are made and i hope there is no mistakes that are ever made. a mistake could be fatal because he sometimes walks the nine three seven and that means with no securing line. last

summer in canada he went boldly when no one had gone before crossing a four hundred meter on face on a waterfall. and exposed to the power of nature. as can mine to face this vice i know my abilities i don't have everything under control and that i've walked this line a hundred times i can do it i'm not afraid as it can all being afraid would mean that i think something could go wrong i'm more afraid of telling my mother about my free solo highlighting and then i set a world record and then a free soloing itself was right and. he believes he's not correctness just mentally stronger and more confident than others the secret if this school were just to control your innate trust yourself and tie yourself to the saccharine listen to this is what i like to do most on the line so why does he do it. you know the me idea for this little benefit to slacklining is that you can pose yourself

challenges playfully and without rules you can be totally creative. p.d.q. not easy both ways ready to take his dance on the line another step further. and i would some again to get creative and you can join in at home and all your mags the i was serious with got some inspiration for you to brighten up your place using just a few material stay the piece is not only beautiful to look at but also quite practical audio expert was show us how to make an organizer. i am francisco i always have. this flying around in my apartment so i made an organizer to keep all things in one place let me show you how. you want to use the picture frame old or new do any form it is time. you will also need
